摘要

To the Editor:At the beginning of 2007, we investigated the frequencies of MEFV gene mutations in Japanese patients with unexplained fever or undifferentiated arthritis to determine their role in phenotypical features of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF)-related diseases. Patients were asked to complete a questionnaire concerning fever, recurrent typical attacks of FMF, including peritonitis, pleuritis, and arthritis, and transient inflammatory response. On the basis of the Tel-Hashomer criteria1, we divided the study subjects into 3 groups, as follows: Group 1, typical FMF (presence of 1 or more major criteria independent of the presence of minor criteria); Group 2, probable FMF (absence of major criteria and 2 or more minor criteria); Group 3, unlikely (not belonging to either Group 1 or 2). Patients who had previously been diagnosed with typical FMF were not included. All patients were first enrolled as having unexplained fever, and finally diagnosed as FMF based on clinical evidence. We stress that the overall survey for the recent clinical manifestations, including the response to colchicine, was not complete in a few patients.
